Your next dollar of income would be taxed at 28.9% once federal and state are combined, while the rate you actually pay across the whole salary is 29.0%. That gap is why a raise never feels as large as the headline rate suggests — and why the effective rate, not the bracket you land in, is the number worth comparing between states.
